Vestal Goodman and I wrote What A Beautiful Day in May of 1970. I was in the hospital recovering from an aneurysm and Aunt Vestal came to see me in the hospital in Detroit. The song was written in French and Vestal Goodman translated it into English.
I need to make a correction on the language that What A Beautiful Day was written in. I started off writing in Flamange for the first verse. The chorus was written in Rhodham. The secret verse is written in Crimean. The chorus goes back into Rhodham. The next chorus is translated into Hindini. Then the last line of the chorus is translated into Hindi. The last line repeats in Flamange.
@@theresabarwick-putrel7884 Yeah, I think by "gone" he just meant no longer singing with the group. The baritone that was an original member and with them a long, long time is the only one who died.
I absolutely Love the Kingdom Heirs. Loren Harris has the Best Baritone Voice of any around today-Period. This song has a very special meaning to me, its the first song I heard Quartet Style when I came to Faith in Christ in 1975. The Kingdom Heirs are the Premier Best Quality singer combination ever. All four voices are crisp, clear and distinct. The very Best Harmony sound out there today.
Beautiful!! I haven't heard this song in many years. It just popped in my head this morning. It IS a Beautiful Day for the Lord to come again, considering all that happened in the year 2020.
One of my Mom's favorite songs---made popular by none other than the Happy Goodmans in 1974/1975. This song was written by Eddie Crook and a young Aaron Wilburn (when was about 24 years old). Aaron Wilburn, we miss you!
Starla, my name is Donald Mayer and I live in Coplay, Pennsylvania in Lehigh County. I'm 62 years old and have been blind since birth. Have you heard the Kingdom Heirs sing What We Needed? Now that's a fantastic song as well. Starla, there's so much other fantastic music on youtube. You may reply to me if you want to do that. Starla, have a fantastic day!

Well Starla, thank you for your reply. Now, let me tell you about some great blue grass music by Andy Leftwich. Listen to Glory To His Name by Andy Leftwich and When We All Get To Heaven by Andy Leftwich. Now, there's some great instrumental blue grass music. Also, you can listen to Mark Bishop sing Come Unto Me. Starla, I think we both know about a lot of great music. You may reach me at baptistdon@ptd.net which is my e mail address. Maybe, you can tell me about your favorite Southern Gospel radio station. I love different kinds of Christian music. You can listen to Michael Card sing New Jerusalem. This is a beautiful song. Again, baptistdon@ptd.net is my e mail address. Starla, have a great day!

Starla, I'm superexcited you're doing Bible Study. Well, I'm going to prayer meeting. Later, we can compare notes. Starla, have a great evening. Would you believe I compose some of my own music? Talk to you later!
Loren Harris is still the Baritone with the group, he was in a car accident last month, and has been out recovering since then. The Piano player, Andy Stringfield, is filling in for him currently.
@@bubba971997 Thanks for the update. Will him be back? He is a such good baritone. Why on this video Arthur say: we hire Andy Not on this video. In another video Arthur said that.
